Notes from Marshall B. Shore:
John married Martha Scott, dau of George Scott and Annie Jenkins, both prominent island families
John was a planter and possessed a large plantation and many negroes. He served in the Revolution in the Company of Volunteers raised by John Jenkins. In January 1775 he was appointed by the Provincial Congress a member of the Committee to carry into effect the proposed "Continental Association".The Charleston City Gazette on March 14, 1797 said of him: "Died, at St. Helena, on Wednesday the 1st inst after a short but painful illness, Capt. John Fripp, aged 40 years. The many amiable qualities he possessed rendered him useful in public as well as private life. He left an amiable wife and four promising young children to mourn his loss."

From "Marriage Notices in the South-Carolina and American General Gazette from May 30, 1776, to February 28, 1781" by A S Salley
Mr James Edwards to Miss Rebecca Fripp, daughter of Capt. John Fripp of St. Helena. (Thursday, November 26, 1778)
SCHG: Spelt Rebekah at birthFrom Edgar Allen Fripp III: (in ‘Ancestors and Kin’ by Coggeshall)
Rebecca Fripp (b.11/2/1755) married (1778) James Edwards of Charleston.
(S.C. Weekly Gazette: married 26 November, 1778)
This record has changed. Martha was shown as married to Thomas Fripp b.11 Apr 1761 (RIN 1411). I'm not sure where that marriage was found, but most records show that Thomas married Martha HANN, which I have now changed to.
TOMBEE has death as 1839
Information received from Lenoir LaRoche Roberts, quoted from "LaRoche Family" by Joseph LaRoche Rivers.
EDWARD RIPPON, a weaver of Edisto Island, married the second time to a daughter of Joseph Farley. Their son, Edward Rippon, Jr. (d. 1757) married Ann _____ and they were the parents of Elizabeth, Isaac, and Martha Rippon. Edward, Jr. left a will (dtd. Jan. 18, 1755 and proved Dec. 19, 1757) mentioning that he was of Edisto, his wife was Ann, and children were Elizabeth, who married a Smelie, Isaac, and Martha Jenkins. After her husband Richard Jenkins (1730-1772) died, Martha married Thomas Hanahan. (Ref. E. Stanley Barnhill collection, South Carolina Historical Society, file 28-681).
Lenoir's research indicates that Edward was in the weaving business and had many "helpers" actually doing the work. He was the owner or proprietor of the business.
Lenoir is a descendant of Martha Rippon and Richard Jenkins.
Could be husband of Phoebe Waight JENKINS
May have been born on Edisto Island
Death also given at Orangeburg, Salley, Aiken, South Carolina
Julianne Fripp Moak has Archibald married to a Chaplin.
Elizabeth was born in 1771, and died in 1849. It is assumed that she is Elizabeth E. Fripp, who died 31 Mar 1849, and is buried at the Chapel of Ease, St Helena Island (see below). Her husband, Archie Fripp, is also said to be buried at Frogmore cemetery, which is where the Chapel of Ease is located.
